The Apprentice Doctor’s suture kit and instructional clinical suturing course offers proven medical simulation to effectively train you to skilfully perform clinical suturing with precision and proficiency. Suturing techniques and knots are highly technical and require repetition to attain mastery. You will master suturing techniques and various knot tying methods using the suturing simulation kit, which includes stainless steel instruments and imitation skin, to practice suturing knots and techniques before working on actual patients.

I must say I was very worried that this might have been a scam with trash quality instruments. I desperately needed to practice my suture skills and took a chance, ordering the kit online. The kit arrived after only 3 days and to my amazement the course material and presentation was superbly professional. The kit had real surgical quality instruments.Trish Levinson, 3rd Year Veterinary Student, MA
